We love our coffee and shopped extensively before landing on this Cuisinart machine. We love it so much that we bought a second one. Our favorite feature include the versatility of having a drip coffee pot, a k-cup coffee pod built in, and an espresso maker. It also has a milk steamer to make lattes and cappuccinos which turn out great

I read the reviews of other buyers prior to buying this coffee maker, and bought it anyway. I own eight other Cuisinart products. They all work beautifully, and the coffee taste better than my old coffee maker. My Barista Bar Coffee Maker worked correctly right out of the box.

The functions of this machine are great. The only reason I didn’t rate 5 stars is about the controls. Should not need a tutorial to make a cup of coffee. The controls for the full pot and single serve side are not labeled as such or organized in an obvious way.

This is a fabulous unit that includes a four-station Barista Bar. It includes a Nespresso station, a K-cup pod unit, and its own coffee maker. The most interesting part is the steamer and hot water dispenser, which I like to use to make hot tea or hot chocolate. It is very functional, although not as fast as an individual unit. The water tank is large, and there is a learning curve to use this unit. Overall, this is an improvement over the older coffee station.

I was very excited to get this product. I did a lot of reading on the item. When it arrived I got it all set up and read through all the instructions. So, it has 2 water filters, one for the pods and one for the carafe. It does everything. You can have brewed coffee, a pod for a cup of coffee, or you can also do a Nespresso pod for an espresso! It even has a milk frother! Perfect.

Excellent 4 in 1 concept! Replaced my Cuisinart grind and brew and single serve K cup machines. Did have to get a burr grinder as we couldn’t live without fresher ground coffee. Versatility is unmatched with high quality coffee and espresso/cappucchino. Only gripe is that at end of K cup brew the K cup is still full of coffee (not purged with air) and it drips. Contacted support and their only suggestion was to return it, which I may do (exchange). Expensive but unique machine!

I actually love the coffee maker, but the only reason I gave it a 4star rating is because of the steam wand being too low. I had to purchase a board for raising the machine just enough to not have to struggle with spilling the hot water from the cup that is filled by the steam wand

So far, I love it......haven't tried the steam yet, just finally got some Nespresso pods. My only wish is that there was more clearance to open the top while under cabinets. I have to pull it out to put pods in or pour water and coffee in. But so far, it's working great!

Good product. Thankful that I read previous reviews about K-Cup issues. I push my K-cup down in the slot until it pops before closing the lid. This ensures that the K-Cup does not explode which has been an issue according to reviews. Unfortunately the single serve coffee does not come out hot, it is just warm. It really is frustrating when I need to add creamer. I am going to experiment with running a small espresso cup amount through and see if the next cup is hot.

I've only had this machine since 6/16/24, but it has worked flawlessly so far. I can't really comment on the quality of espresso it produces as I haven't really been an espresso drinker. My wife who frequents Starbucks does say that the drinks I've produced for her have been good. The other functions have done just fine. As far as the machine itself, it works well and seems to have a good build quality. All the functions seem to work, but there is a small learning curve to this machine. My main complaint with the machine is the milk frother as it's not very convenient. The steam tube is completely vertical and too long to get a milk filled container underneath without tipping allowing the milk/foam to spill out. It does swing out from the machine, but is still too close to easily froth the milk. It's just not designed for easy use. Other than that, all is fine with this machine and I have enjoyed the versatility allowing for fresh brewed coffee into the carafe, k-cup, or espresso drinks.
